    1. Textured and Ebonized Walnut / Burl / Dyed Maple

    Those are really neat looking? How do you get the lid to stay on the two without the flares. Looks like the one on the left has a lip but did you turn the lip or make it after?

    Very unique. I love the overall shaping and wood combinations and texturing. The wave just plain throws it over the top! Outstanding.

    The mechanics involved in making these intrigue me as much as the finished product. Gorgeous. Just plain gorgeous.

    Those are just phenomenal! That is definitely a level of turning that I aspire to. Thank you for sharing.

    Every time I see something on this site it gives me new inspiration for projects and ideas that I wouldn't even think of on my own. Thank goodness for places like this.
